Calling this one a blow out.

[JasonStern]

Yeah. Can't imagine this one going well. But I am optimistic. Maybe the Bucks sleepwalk and only win by 10,

[The Sebastian Express]

I'm prepared for pain. I'm prepared for Giannis to have an 70/25 game.

Poor Trendon and Drew.

[DusterBuster]

Should be a fun matchup for the NBA's two players of the week playing against each other the day they get announced.

[PDXKnight]

Giannis will own us

This is going exactly like I thought it would.

*Actually we're doing a good job hanging around so far. Lillard is figuring out how to score adjust this defense, but anytime you can pull up from 38 you're gonna get something going eventually.

Not much more has to be said.

I still wonder how good they would be if Dame somehow ended up In Milwaukee.

I figured they'd just attack Drew and Holiday would lock up Dame. Who's gonna stop Giannis?

Everyone talks about us picking Bowie over Jordan, or Oden over Durant, but CJ over Giannis is equally horrible.

[DusterBuster]

Seriously. WTF are we doing here?

We have Dame at his peak putting up numbers we've never seen before and a team mid as ****.

Dame's spot in Blazers history is etched in stone, he's gonna have a statue outside the arena and he can literally own a majority stake in the team after he retires or have a major office role if he wants it. If the team can't give him a competitive roster in the last few years he can play at this level, trade him. Hey may even not want it, but his talent is too good to be squandered like this.

This is literally the definition of a waste of a season. To have a .500 team in a year like this is absolutely laughable. Outside of the Jordan and Oden/Durant drafts, the Blazers have an uncanny ability to be trash in years it doesn't matter and be a C the years you should absolutely be an A or an F. The West is wide open and there's generational talents a the top of the draft. If you aren't going for it all-in to win this year or you aren't bottoming out, you're just wasting your time... and Dame's prime to boot.

****.

No one defends Lillard better than Jrue Holladay. Once Lillard realized he wasnt going to get enough space to shoot some open 3s, he found success driving to the basket. Needed to figure that out a whole lot sooner. Friggin Lopez. The Dude had no one remotely close to his size. This is where we missed Nurkic tonight.

Why didn't Johnson play tonight during Garbage time? And why were Carter and Matthew's out there during garbage time?

That's some revisionist history. PLENTY of teams missed on Giannis. He was an anomaly considering how good he was an how low he was picked.

[DaVoiceMaster]

Yeah, every team that drafted before Milwaukee missed on Giannis.
